I always loved this rant. This was back in the day when you would only have maybe 10,000 fans in the stands for a weekday day baseball game in Wrigley Field. You could walk-up just before the game and get a ticket in the bleachers for $5. Then the following year (1984), the Cubs win the division and go to the playoffs for the first time since 1945, and suddenly they become the hottest ticket in town.
